GREEK RESTAURANT
FIRST PLACE
Axia Taverna
AXIA is an experience in elevated
Greek dining. Launched in 2006 in
Tenafly, the restaurant gives diners
a sublime experience in a warm and
friendly atmosphere. Executive Chef
Alex Gorant modernizes the dining
experience by grouping dishes into
Small Plates and Big Plates. Traditional
Greek meze, seafood bites, meatballs
traditional Greek spreads with pita
bread are great starters for sharing,
along with a family style Greek salad.
Big Plates include standout fish
dishes, either grilled or pan roasted,
incredibly tender roasted free-range
chicken, pastichio, moussaka and
the nightly specials from Chef Alex.
General Manager Tim Vlahopoulos
makes sure everything runs smoothly
at the restaurant and customers have Axia Taverna
come to expect his warm presence
as they are greeted with a smile and
a handshake. Axia features a full bar
and sommelier-chosen wines. Tim
takes great pride in the Greek varietals,
which are one-third of the 360 bottles
offered. Two dozen wines are offered
by the glass. Tim handles all requests
for parties on Axias upper level, as well
as off-site catered parties. AXIA Taverna
is open for lunch Monday through
Friday, and open for dinner every night
of the week. In Greek, AXIA means
worthy and this Tenafly restaurant
certainly lives up to the name.
